Hi all, the following posts summarizes basic insights from the data we have compiled over the past few months. We have information on migration, weather, land use classifications and recent nightlights (full details shared in data section below). Am currently overlaying rural and urban regions to test our primary hypothesis on the data. Meanwhile sharing following maps here just to share a spatial sense of the compiled data. As a 101 check have
Given the size and complexity of merging these datasets, would be grateful to get your thoughts on possible hypothesis/focus regions.
Following maps is based on Clicim.The map indicates the regions where emigration was more than 90%ile globally over the past 40 years, covering around 4k grids globally. The adjoining scale shows compares the highest emigrations within these 4k highest emigrating grids. Based on the maps, we see a consistent churn in China, India, coastal regions of Brazil, Aregntina and parts of equatorial and south Africa, which I believe could be explained to a certain through social mobility and higher growth.
PS:have excluded Tehran from this as it seemed to have some issue with data (recording almost 8million emigration consistently).
Regions with maximum change in temperature over the past 40 years. Mapping with the Clicim timeline, the following maps show the regions with highest increase in temperature from 1900, i.e. taking the difference in annual average temperature from 1975 and 1900, 1990 and 100 and so on.
Based on the maps above,
